GFAB™ NGA Glass Fabricator Conference // June 14-17, 2026

We’re Part of GFAB™ 2026 — Meet Us in Chicago

The NGA Glass Fabricators Conference – GFAB™ – is a brand-new industry event launching this June 14–17, 2026, at the Radisson Blu Hotel in downtown Chicago. Organized by the National Glass Association, it brings together decision-makers, technical leaders, and production personnel from across the glass fabrication industry, all under one roof for three days of focused education, hands-on learning, and networking.

We’re proud to be part of this event and the Workshop Track on quality control in glass tempering. That means our team will be on-site as subject-matter experts, not just exhibiting but actively contributing to the educational program. We’ll lead a 40-minute session on interesting topics related to automated quality control solutions for tempering, and our equipment will be on display at Skyline Design during the workshop and plant tour.

What We’ll Be Showing

We’ll have our quality inspection portfolio on display:

• Osprey 25 for distortion and anisotropy measurement
• LineScanner for surface and edge quality and geometry inspection of float, heat-treated, laminated glass, and IG units
• BowScanner for overall bow recognition
• CulletScanner for automated fragmentation analysis
• GASP for surface stress measurement

If you want to see how these systems work in practice — and talk through what makes sense for your production line — this is a good opportunity to do that in person.

Why It’s Worth Attending

GFAB combines the strengths of the former NGA Glass Conference and Glass Processing Automation Days (GPAD) into one focused event. The program covers four tracks: executive content, technical and advocacy sessions, a hands-on workshop for plant personnel, and dedicated networking with machinery and software partners. Whether you’re a production manager, a technical lead, or a company executive, there’s a track built for you.

Come find us in Chicago. We’ll be there to show, talk, and listen.
